The post-graduate studies in the sphere of preservation and management of museum collections have been run by the Faculty of Fine Arts of the NCU in Toruń since the 1970s. Museological education has a long tradition at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the NCU in Toruń, because as early as 1946 within its organisational structure the Unit/ Department for the Study and Conservation of Cultural Monuments was created, which in 1969 was transformed into the Unit/Department for Conservation and Museology.

Afterwards the NCU in Toruń ran several museological studies, and in the academic year 1999/2000 it set up the Post-Graduate Museological Studies again.
